As I understand the process, a vaccine trains your body to recognize and attack the virus you are vaccinated for.  So you do get the virus, but your body reacts and destroys it before it can effect you.  If you are un-vaccinated then it takes longer for your bodies defenses to respond and that allows the virus time to get entrenched and make you sick.  Being vaccinated also will keep you from spreading the disease.

That's my layman's understanding anyway.

I'm afraid that would be molecularly impossible.

Vaccines don't prevent you from getting any disease.  That would be news worthy I would think.  Polio, smalllox, mumps, measles, whooping cough???

These freaks want a vaccine that's 100% effective or it's worthless.  As for me, I want a boat mechanic that's 100% effective, and some old goat that's right all the time too.

And from what I heard down at the bar, pretty right too.

I'm surprised more info hasn't came out about the life insurance policies.   Oneshot is right about them.  Read your policy.   Same goes for terrorism.   The companies have a way of keeping their money.  

Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction. (me)

I am the master of my unspoken words, and the slave to those that should have remained unsaid. (unknown)

If you really want to get your mind twisted about what modern medicine is up to, read about Crispr and treatments for things like sickle cell.  Alzheimer's is probably next up (or at least not that far off) for a no joke cure.  They've figured out how to make and inject billions of nano particles carrying a gene cutting  mRNA sequence that actually seeks out and disables the faulty DNA in cells that cause these diseases.  Sounds like science fiction but it's not.  They started out modifying cells and injecting them but there are parts of the body that are very difficult to extract cells from.  Thus the nano particle effort.  And it freaking works!

That's interesting, but I'm reasonably sure that the description of "recognize and attack" isn't meant to be taken literally.       

I'd have to see that molecular violence happening in real time to buy THAT.

You'd have to be a molecular biology research scientist for that to happen and we all know what the chances of that are.
